For a richer flavor, consider browning the ham bone in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker. Feel free to add other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or corn. If you don't have kidney beans, other beans like great northern or cannellini beans work well. For a spicier soup, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce. This soup freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers.
